Options for Masters programs in Biostatistics for Singapore-based candidates.

London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, University of London
This is a distance-learning program that is taught using interactive CD-ROM materials, supported by practical workbooks and textbooks. Students are actively encouraged to participate in Web-based discussion boards and may pursue a Master of Science in either Clinical Trials or Epidemiology, both of which include a fair amount of practical biostatistics content.

Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, Duke University
